Swindon vs Forest Green PREDICTION & BETTING TIPS - 07/03/2020

Our prediction for this League 2 match:

Swindon

Match Time & Date:

07/03/2020

10:00 AM

Prediction: 2-1

Forest Green

All eyes will be on the County Ground when Swindon Town and Forest Green Rovers face each other in the League Two derby on Matchday 37. The Robins are eyeing their third consecutive win in the English fourth tier, and a triumph over the Green Army will see them move one step closer to securing automatic promotion to the League One.

Considering that the likes of Plymouth, Cheltenham, Exeter, and Crewe are breathing down their neck, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. Forest Green have been struggling at the back in the second half of the season, and, as things stand now, they are unlikely to make it to the play-offs. The visitors failed to win the last eight league fixtures, which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on the league leaders.
